Project Purpose

The purpose of the project is to develop a format(s) for the publication of UN/CEFACT’s libraries. The project will provide a machine-processable format for the library content that may easily be integrated by software providers as well as allowing browsing of the library content by humans.

Project Scope

The project will define the publication format for the following libraries.
- Core Components
- Business Information Entities
- Data Types
- Document Assemblies
- Reference Data Models
Other libraries, such as UN/EDIFACT, and library submission formats are out of scope but may be separate projects.
